"If, after removing alpha64 ia64 dec hp vms% openvms% alphavms% (and stray whitespace) from the host, what remains is equal to nothing" -> "If host consists only of things in alpha64 ia64 dec hp vms% openvms% alphavms%". It's a slightly confusing construct I agree. Watch out for the difference between filter vs. filter-out and ifeq vs. ifneq, and note that that final comma indicates there's an empty string as arg2 of the if condition. cheers, DaveK
